The Seventy Weeks of Daniel;
An Extensive Biblical and
Astronomical Study
Daniel's Prophecy of the 70 weeks is an
an important key to Bible prophecy. The
Edict of Artaxerxes Longimanus
given to Nehemiah
on the new moon of Nisan in the springtime of
445 B.C. faithfully fulfills
the Biblical criteria to fire the starting gun for the
'70 Weeks Prophecy'.
The solar and lunar cycles accurately mark off the first segment of 69 weeks to arrive
on the 10th day of the Nisan moon in
32 A.D.
4 days before Messiah is "cut off" or executed on the Passover of our Lord's passion.
On that very day Jesus rode into Jerusalem on a donkey precisely as Zechariahah had prophesied. (Zech. 9:9)
This was the first and only official public and political appearance of Jesus
as "Messiah the Prince". It was
Palm Sunday.
This 10th day of Nisan, 32 A.D. marked the terminus of the 69 weeks.
In this series of articles we present the lunar calculations confirming the remarkably accurate findings of 19th Century
evangelical Scotland Yard Inspector
Sir Robert Anderson
in his book
'The Coming Prince'. A minor two day variance over 476 odd years is of no consequence.
We are looking here at a confidence level of 1 in 100,000 or 99.999 % accuracy.
Daniel's prophecy clearly indicates that one 'week',
the
'70th Week' of the Seventy Weeks prophecy
is still most certainly out there in our future.
This climactic future seven year timespan will mark the final seven years of this age.
We have good evidence to conclude
that this future seven year period will be initiated and terminated by the very next two upcoming, yet to be fulfilled,
Fall Feasts of Israel. These are feasts #5 and #6 of the
Seven Feasts of Israel.
These next two feasts are the
Feast of Trumpets and the
Day of Atonement.
BIG DISCOVERY!
THE FINAL 7 YEARS OF THIS AGE
WILL START WITH THE FEAST OF
TRUMPETS AND FINISH ON THAT
EPIC FINAL DAY OF ATONEMENT.
|
|
The final seven years of this age is
a period of
1260 days
+
1290 days
= 2550 days.
In 2003 this author discovered that the number of days bridging
the
Feast of Trumpets and the
Day of Atonement
seven years later (or 86 moons plus 9 days later), was also
2550 days.
It is a perfect match!
So that final climactic
seven year time period is being staked out
precisely, to the very day,
by the first two of the (yet to be fulfilled)
Fall Feasts of Israel!
The
Feast of Trumpets in some future epic year will almost certainly mark
that blockbuster event, the
seven year peace covenant of Dan.9:27.
This will initiate the 70th Week of Daniel. Seven years, (and 2549 days) later comes the final
'Day of Reckoning', the
Day of Atonement. This awesome future Yom Kippur holiday will wrap up history for this present era.
It will be the last day of this present age.
The day afterward will see the opening of the
'Day of the Lord'.
Judgment Day will have arrived.
The wicked will be carried off first, not the righteous.
Evil angels of God's wrath will pluck up the wicked as tares for the fires. (Mat.13:30)
The righteous will stand there and see the reward of the wicked. (Ps.91:8)
Some days after this, (on a day unknown), the Elect will be gathered up to Christ at the
Post-Tribulation Resurrection Rapture.

Welcome to the
Pilgrim Pathway!
An introduction to this website.
The Seven Feasts of Israel
are also known as the
Feasts of the Lord,
or the
Jewish Holidays,
Seven Hebrew Holidays were instituted by God.
Four of them have already been fulfilled.
Three more are yet to come. And they will.
They will erupt into holy history to realize
their New Covenant fulfilment during those
climactic
final seven years of this age.
The Fall Feasts of Israel
The next two feasts due to come up
for fulfillment and erupt into holy
history are the
Feast of Trumpets
and the
Day of Atonement. This author
has discovered that
these two Fall Feasts
when they are placed seven years apart and include 86, (not 87), moons stake out
2550 days.
This is precisely the timespan encompassing the
future 1260 + 1260 day
70th week
of Daniel plus the 30 day extension
that reaches out beyond the 70th Week to include the
1290 days spoken of by the angel Gabriel to Daniel and
given to us in Dan.12:11. 1260 + 1290 = 2550 days. It is a perfect match!
The Feast of Trumpets
The 5th feast is still unfulfilled. On
some epic future Rosh Hashanah the
trumpets will sound the alarm.
Why? What will have happened?
The mirror article is
Rosh Hashanah's Final Fulfillment
Blood Covenant Christianity
The New Covenant is a blood covenant relationship
between Christ and His church. Are we merely passive
recipients of this great salvation? Or is the love of God
drawing us into the vital and essential role of witness?
NEW
The First Resurrection and
the Tribulation Saints.
The Tribulation saints we see in Revelation 20:4-6 are featured members of the First Resurrection.
Do these martyrs head up the parade of all the saints of this age?
Or do they make up the entire company of the First Resurrection?
NEW
Who Will Be Left To
Populate The Millennium?
The question is asked of those who believe there will be
a Post-Tribulation Rapture.
If the Elect are glorified and the wicked damned then who will be left at the end of the age
to populate the earth during the ensuing Millennium?
Is there a third category? The answer is 'yes' and
the answer lies in the Sheep-Goat Judgment
NEW
The Sabbath Rest
The Sabbath is the fourth commandment.
We correctly see it as a law for Israel in the Old Covenant.
But could the Sabbath also be a New Covenant experience to be entered into by God's grace?
Might it also be a personal invitation to draw aside from the labors and cares of this world
and to enjoy a time of rest and fellowship with God?
The Rapture of the Church
When Christ our Messiah glorifies His covenant people into new spiritual bodies at the end of this age the righteous dead
will come out of their graves. Then we who are alive and remain will be "caught up" with them
in an event of great wonder called the Rapture.
When is this Rapture event? The answer is easy.
It can be tagged from the well documented timing of the Resurrection of the righteous dead.
NEW
Israel and the Church.
Restored as One!
Dispensationalist (splitters) are keen to separate off Israel from the Church.
Their end-time fantasies are of a Jewish nation
'Left Behind'
even as they, the established evangelical church,
misbehaves like a
Runaway Bride, baulks at the
blood covenant commitment,
and
raptures themselves out seven years before the end of this age.
Reformed Theology (lumpers) are quite correct in their insistence upon a single Covenant.
But unfortunately in the absence of a viable Scripturally based Israelology in their seminaries they
are often inclined to slip-slide into Augustine and Origen's
Replacement Theology which says that the Church has replaced (and displaced) Israel.
This Replacement Theology is bad news.
It has thrown up bloody
anti-Semitic histories for 1700 years. It is also linked to
Dominion Theology, crusading church-state jingoism, church sponsored inquisitions,
and both nationalistic and socialistic warmongering.
Replacement Theology is still nestled in many of the older denominations. It needs to be renounced ASAP!
But the God of Israel in the Holy Scriptures always speaks of
one Elect and He draws one
Chosen People to Himself.
At the end of the age we see a remnant Israel, primarily the royal Jewish House of Judah, and a remnant church being reunited as a restored
and fullly regathered
Commonwealth of Israel. The
Breach of Jeroboam will be healed and the family feud will end.
The Jews will be saved, the
lost ten tribes found,
and the two estranged houses of Israel will be cross-linked together as a
single Elect,
even the "royal
priesthood and holy nation" Moses and the Apostle Peter both spoke about. (Exodus 19:6, 1Peter 2:9)
All these mysteries will unfold in the future
end-time drama
as the
Fall Feasts of Israel erupt into their New Covenant fulfillment and into world history.
Who Are The Chosen People?
Who are God's Chosen People?
Are they the Jews? The Church?
Does YHVH-God have two Chosen Peoples?
Does He have an 'apartheid policy' for His Elect?
The Holy Scriptures, as usual, give us the answer.
Because from cover to cover the Bible only speaks of
one Elect, one Chosen People.
So if all of God's covenant people are
destined to become a single Congregation/Church/Synagogue and a single nation then
how will this great and epic re-union and restoration occur? And when?
And by whom?
NEW
The Woman of Revelation 12
& The Constellation Andromeda
"The woman" is showcased throughout Holy Scripture. We see her in the Garden of Eden
and her Seed is prophesied to crush the head of the serpent. (Gen. 3:15)
In the book of Hosea she is the wife of YHVH-God, and like Gomer, the wife of Hosea, she is inclined to forget
her true Husband, the God of Israel and get into a world of trouble.
But all is not lost. In the prophecy of Hosea she is eventually purchased in a slave market and wonderfully restored.
In the book of Revelation
John saw the woman in great travail and tribulation and yet entering into her glorious destiny at the climax of the age.
He saw her in travail and delivering the man-child.
She is clothed with the sun, the glory of her Father. The moon, with her reflected Light, is under her feet.
She is crowned with a garland of 12 stars. John saw her under attack by the dragon but saved and delivered at the end.
The heavens are telling this very same awesome end-time story in
the constellation of Andromeda.
The Commonwealth of Israel.
Does it Include the True Church?
In Ephesian 2:12-13 our Apostle Paul states that Christians were once
heathen, lost and without hope, and outside the Commonwealth of Israel.
But now, in Christ, they have been brought nigh. Does this mean
that true Christian believers are now inside the Commonwealth or citizenship of Israel?
And if so, then what are our responsibilities in this citizenship? Are we to be witnesses to Messiah
before kings and rulers as we come into the dramas at the end of the age? (Luke 21:12, Mark 13:9)
NEW
Biblical or Prophetic Time
Daniel's prophecy of the
70 weeks and other Bible prophecies
sees God dispensing time to us from His heavenly throne in terms of 'years' and 'months'.
How many days are in the "Biblical year"? And how many days in a "Biblical month"?
The Bible gives us two Rosetta Stones, as it were, for Biblical or prophetic time.
One is in Genesis 7 and the other in Revelation 12.
When we answer these two questions correctly we find that this key Bible prophecy,
Daniel's prophecy of the 70 Weeks,
emerges from the fog and opens up to us.

The Jewish New Year
and a False Messiah
It appears that a future Jewish New Year,
a future Feast of Trumpets,
will erupt into holy history in spectacular fashion.
It will be the occasion of the confirmation of the seven year covenant or sovereignty sharing treaty of
Daniel 9:27.
Israel and the nations of western Christendom will sign on with a global peacemaker. He will turn out to be
the false messiah. On that day the watchmen of Israel will be sounding the trumpets of alarm and calling
all of God's covenant people to sacred assembly. The
final seven years of this age
will have just begun. The mirror article is

NEW
Who Are Daniel's People?
Daniel's
Prophecy of the 70 weeks
provides vital information concerning the end-time.
The angel Gabriel said "Seventy Weeks are determined",
(or cut out of time), "for your people".
Since one week, (or seven), of
Biblical years still remains
then this is a key end-time prophecy.
Who then, are Daniel's people? Are Christians in the loop here?
Or should we consider "Daniel's people" to be "just the Jews" as we have been told?
When we answer this question correctly
and responsibly we enter into a dark night of the soul.
We find ourselves face to face with the cross of Christ in a very personal way and
wrestling with the Angel of God's Presence
just as Jacob did.
When we accept the Word of God and surrender ourselves to Him we find ourselves entering into a divine serendipity.
And why? Because "the testimony of Jesus is the Spirit of prophecy."
(Rev. 19:10)
And it is in
this devotion that end time Bible prophecy opens up to us in all its wonder.
The End Time Discipline
at the Gate of Joseph.
You are spies!
And You Will Be Tested!
The bones of Joseph are still with us today,
although
disturbed of late.
And the seemingly severe and yet nurturing character
the God of Israel has molded in Joseph is a very present
reality in the New Covenant.
The Gate of Joseph and all this means is now opening wide before us.
This passage into the spirit and character of Joseph and Benjamin will be very important
as we come into the
end-time drama.
And the experiences of our patriarch will
be recapitulated in the history of the Church as we approach the
climax of this present age.
NEW
The Gate of Joseph
and the Evangelical Witness
Joseph was given a coat of many colors,
persecuted by his brethren,
thrown into the pit, and sold into slavery.
There at the house of the Chief Executioner of the Egyptian World Order of that time he resisted the seductions of
Potiphar's harlot wife.
Thrown into prison he became the interpreter of the dream of a looming reality, a
seven year period of famine and great trial.
Hiding his identity until the emergence of his brother Benjamin our patriarch Joseph fed the world
the Bread of Life. Then as Benjamin came he fed his brothers.
The Evangelical family are a scattered persecuted people of many colors and flags.
They too have been persecuted unto the death. 500 Evangelical Christians die every day. And yet in spite of all this they
feed the world the Gospel of the Living Christ, the sinless
Unleavened Bread of Heaven, the Bread of Eternal Life.
Biblical Christians also bring interpretation
to the
70th Week of Daniel, those future seven lean years that bring us to the climax of this age.
If Joseph's sons Ephraim and Manasseh are two prominent English speaking nations, recipients
of the birthright of whom the patriarch Jacob said, "these two will be mine"
who then is Joseph? Who is this Joseph company who are alienated and separate from their brethren?
Who are these people who
feed their brethren portions from a table set apart and consecrated?
Who is this mysterious House of Joseph,
this company with the bloodstained coat, (or covering), of many colors (or flags)?
A Parable of Ten Virgins
This parable carries an informative and inspiring
message for pilgrim Christians. At some point the leading lights of western Christendom will begin to sputter and approach burnout.
As Jesus tells the story the whole bridal company is slumbering in the deepening darkness.
The hours drag on towards the midnight hour and their lamps are
beginning to burn low and grow dim.
Suddenly, the midnight cry is heard.
The Bridegroom is approaching!
It is time to go out to meet Him.
Now the unfolding drama has become very very personal.

One Single Elect -
drawn from Israel and the Church
Are there two Elects?
Does YHVH-God have an apartheid policy?
And is Israel to forever to remain in her present broken divided state?
The Holy Scriptures, as usual, provide us with
answers to these crucial questions. And this and many other mysteries will surely unfold.
They will become manifest in holy history in the crucible of the End Time.
The mirror article is,
Who are the Chosen People?
The Lost Ten Tribes of Israel
In 722 B.C. the northern ten tribes of Israel
were taken captive by the Assyrians.
They were deliberately intermingled with the nations and disappeared into history.
They are out there, the
Notzrim, which means "watchers" or "a safekeep",
to be revealed at the appointed time.
The Two Witnesses
John saw the two witnesses on earth during
the final 3.5 years, 1260 days of this age. (Rev. 11:2)
They were described to him as two olive trees.
Are they just two men, say Elijah along with Moses or Enoch?
Or is there more to the story? Might the two witnesses
relate in a broader way to the climactic end time
witness of the Kingdom of God on earth by the royal (Jewish), House of Judah in Eretz Israel
and the priestly ministry of the Church, the wider Commonwealth of Israel throughout the world in the Gospel?
Will the Two Witnesses bring in the promised Restoration of Israel? And how will they do this?
Will it be done by means of the
New Covenant spoken of by Jeremiah? (Jer.31:31-33)
The 'Left Behind Series'
Is it fostering a spirit of desertion in the Church?
Why are we as Western evangelicals embracing a Disneyized or Hollywood style eschatology
that has us skipping out 7 years before the climax of the age?
Who dares change the awesome things of God into cheap melodrama for the masses?
And why are we deserting on our Jewish brethren before they
come into the New Covenant near the end of the age? (Zech. 12:7-13:1)
The Flight to Bozrah
The 'woman' of Revelation 12 is
given the wings of a great eagle.
And she flies to a place of safety.
This is an awesome and yet untold prophecy
of the end time. The mirror article is
The Bozrah Exile
The Resurrection of the Righteous Dead
When is the Resurrection of the righteous dead?
Popular Bible prophecy teachers avoid the question like the plague.
Because the Resurrection is securely nailed down
to the "last day". (John 6:39 +) And the "First Resurrection" we see in Rev.20
includes the tribulation martyrs.
The Resurrected saints are also part of the
single Elect gathered by angels "after the tribulation" in the midst of
the 6th seal cosmic signs of a darkened sun and bloody moon.
So the Resurrection is clearly a post-tribulation event.
Paul tells us that the Rapture is attached to the Resurrection. (1Thes.4:15-17)
So the Rapture must be a post-tribulation event as well.
'Paradise Road'
An exhortational poem
from Hebrews 11:1-12:2.
The Breach of Jeroboam
In 922 B.C. after the death of King Solomon the great
nation of Israel became a house divided. The breach of Jeroboam
saw the ten northern tribes cut off their own sovereignty.
They rebelled from the Throne of David in the Jewish house of Judah.
Later they became the
Lost Ten Tribes of Israel and were lost to history.
Will all Israel be found and fully restored? Yes. This is just one of the many great mysteries
that will be revealed in the
end time drama.
A Runaway Bride:
The Western Church?
The Western Church is running away from her pre-nuptial responsibilities.
She refuses to face her role as witness to her Bridegroom in the end time.
The popular teaching of a Pre-Tribulation Rapture is a clear evidence of this.
It is in fact a
doctrine of desertion and of abandonment.
Will the Western Church assume her true end time role of witness?
Will she be dressed in white raiment, the righteousness of the saints,
as the true Bride of Christ?
The Harlot of Revelation 17
The Book of Revelation can be read as a story of two women.
One of them, the
Woman of Revelation 12, is glorious.
The other woman is not.
She is the harlot of Revelation 17 & 18.
Who is this harlot? What will she do
when she
takes dominion in the end time drama?
And what will happen to her?
The Root Cause of Anti-Semitism
or
The Origin of Anti-Semitism
Jesus Christ comes to minister and also to rule.
Even now He is being enthroned in the hearts of His people in the gentle bonds of Agape love.
After the
Second Coming of Messiah the Throne of David
will be established upon this earth.
Messiah will both minister and reign in righteousness in the
two offices of Melchizedek for
a thousand years. This is the coming
Millennium of Messiah. The spirit of Belial, or rebellion, hates and loathes His
coming rule with a passion. (See King David's song in Psalm 2.)
So a hidden spiritual war is being conducted against the Throne of David
which is inside the Jewish House of Judah.
Evil powers, angelic and human, are targeting
Jews, Israelis, Evangelicals, and all who bear testimony to the future
rule of the Lion of the Tribe of Judah, Yeshua Hamashiach our coming Jewish Messiah.
This is the root cause and the essential essence of all anti-Semitism.
It is a seething hatred against the
rulership of the coming "Son of David".
This is the real reason for the raging of the Gentiles, the (heathen), against Israel and Jews.
This hostility against the Throne of David and the loathing of the message of Messiah's Second Coming
is purveyed by wicked men agitated by their dark angels. Their hatred is quite understandable.
These ruling powers are short timers. They are in stark terror of the
pending judgment they are about to face with the coming of Messiah. This is
the quintessential root of all Anti-Semitism whether it be the carefully cloaked acts of
high government officials, high church dignitaries,
or the more blatant and brutish outrages committed by skinheads and neo-Nazis.
The word "Anti-Semitism" is clearly an obfuscation. It is a smokescreen
hiding something else. The word is a misnomer designed to mislead the unwary.
"Anti-Semitism", at its heart, is really "anti-Throne of David-ism" or
"Anti-Messiah-ism". It is, in fact,
the "anti-Jewish", "Anti-Judah" arm of the spirit of Anti-Christ.
Rebuilding the Jewish Temple
The
Temple Mount Faithful are ready
right now to rebuild the Temple
in Jerusalem.
But it will require a dramatic change of the political equation.
'Peace and security' must be fully
assured for the Third Temple to be constructed on the Temple Mount
in Jerusalem. This rebuilding is prophesied to go forward.
So who will have guaranteed the peace? And how will it have come about?
The End Time Revival
The scriptures tell of a coming Holy
Spirit outpouring of massive
proportions. This will power up right in
the midst of the dramatic tribulation events of
the last 7 years of this age.
The prophet Joel saw
this awesome revival climax in a
blaze of glory. The time setting
is clearly marked out for us by the cosmic disturbances of the 6th seal.
This means that the epic future Holy Spirit outpouring
will come to a peak right on the very last day of this age!
Dominion Theology in Recent History
Dominionism, Post-Millennialism, the
'Kingdom Now' Movement, the
'Latter Rain Movement', and Reconstructionism.
They are all coming together in America today.
But have we seen them before? What has been their history?
When the medieval Roman Church embraced Dominion Theology it eventually took us on into the Crusades.
Later the Church in Spain embraced Dominion Theology and it brought us the Spanish Inquisition.
Jesuit dominionists took over the Church in France during the 1500's.
They were the ones who orchestrated the
St. Bartholomew's Day Massacre and "sanctified"
the subsequent bloody persecutions against the Protestant Huguenots in France.
Jesuit Cardinal Richelieu became prime minister of France
and laid siege to the Huguenots at the siege at La Rochelle.
The overly powerful French Church became spiritually compromised
and debauched. This led on to the secularist backlash of the French Revolution.
France then got the
Reign of Terror, a police state, and the Napoleonic Wars.
Even dear Great Britain embraced Dominion Theology in the late 19th and early 20th century.
This was even as the proud British Empire covered one quarter of the globe.
And what happened then? The Titanic struck an iceberg in an unusual way and sank.
Two World Wars with Germany filled in by the Great Depression followed.
The once Great Britain was brought down.
Dear saints. Is there a lesson here for us here?

Isaiah's Prophecy of the
Coming Destruction of Damascus
Damascus today is a modern city
in southwest Syria near the border of Israel.
It has an
ancient history going back 4,000 years
to the time of Abraham.
It has never been destroyed. But the prophet
Isaiah (ch.17) declared that at some future time
Damascus would become "a heap of rubble".
What will have happened?
The Sheep Goat Judgement
There will be a judgment of surviving unsaved mortals
at the end of this age. Messiah will judge the sheep
from the goats. The sheep and the goats are unsaved. Perhaps over a billion of them are children.
The living mortals are heathen gentiles. They are still outside the covenants of Israel.
Judgment for Millennial entry is based
on evidence of a second order blood covenant relationship with Messiah.
Neither the sheep nor the goats are in direct covenant with Messiah.
But the sheep are shown to be in an indirect covenant with Christ.
And why? Because they ministered blood covenant lovingkindness
to His friends, the saints in their time of tribulation.
On this basis the returning Messiah selects them out as His sheep.
They are issued a passport for entry into the
Millennium of Messiah.
The Day of Atonement
The 6th of the
Feasts of Israel
is still unfulfilled and up there in our future. It appears
that this awesome day on the Jewish calendar
will erupt into holy history at the
very last day of this age.
The Puritan Dream
and 'Manifest Destiny'
They sailed from England with a dream.
Their Puritan vision was for the New World
to be a 'nation under God' and a light to the world.
This later crystallized into a sense of 'manifest destiny'
and a belief that they will
lead the world into ultimate peace and security.
The Pre-Tribulation Rapture
versus the
The Post-Tribulation Rapture
Which one is Biblically correct?
Most of us have heard the pre-tribulation
rapture thesis expounded many many times.
But is it true to God's Holy Word?
Here is 'the rest of the story'.
The Bozrah Deliverance
The Second Coming of Christ in the clouds is well known.
So is His Second Coming on the Mount of Olives and
His divine judgment on the armies of the nations
threatening Jerusalem and mustering in the Valley of Armageddon.
The Bible also speaks about the divine judgment
on the wicked and a magnificent deliverance of God's
covenant people at a place called Bozrah which in the latter days
will be under
Edomite, (bad guy)
control. This is the spectacular and magnificent Bozrah Deliverance. - Mic.2:12-13
Do we know about this?
The Metonic Cycles and
the 70th Week of Daniel.
The metonic cycle in which
an extra month of Adar is inserted before the month
of Nisan 7 times every 19 years in a certain cadence
is used in the
Hebrew Calendar. This provides
valuable information about an
upcoming seven year time span known as the
7Oth Week of Daniel.
The author noticed that for those future
seven year spans with 86 moons the two
Fall Feasts of Israel that are coming up for fulfillment
happen to stake out with total precision the
2550 days encompassing the
final seven years of this age.
Is this a coincidence?
Probably not. Is this info helpful to us?
Yes it certainly is. We should keep a very close watch on events in Israel
during the fall (autumn) season of each year.
The epic future 7 year peace treaty,
the
covenant of Dan.9:27,
will involve the handover of
God's sovereign territory in the Holy Land
of Israel. The deal
will probably be signed on a future dark and moonless night,
the new moon of Tishrei, Rosh Hashanah, the
Feast of Trumpets, and the Jewish New Year.
A dreadful and yet awesome day will have dawned.
The trumpets will be blowing in earnest.
And the
70th week of Daniel, the final seven years
of this age, will have just begun.
Information Warfare
and God's Holy Word
There is a spiritual war going on in the second heaven and here on earth.
It involves an information war. The true Word of God
is under attack by secular blocking spirits
as well as deceptive spirits of
religious disinformation.
The Word of God,
as usual, will prevail.
Beauty and the Beast
The quintessential element of the end-time drama
is the final conflict between the Eternal Covenant, a devotion to God in Christ,
and a coming 7-year peace treaty/covenant with a self worshipping Luciferian
peacemaker, a false messiah who will later be 'revealed' to become the
666 Antichrist.
For many in Christendom and many in
the nation of Israel it is unclear at present just
who they will end up following.
This conflict of devotion, (and its climactic resolution),
is what the coming
Great Tribulation, and the
End-Time Revival
(which comes with it),
is all about.
Pre-Trib to Post-Trib
The author's personal story of his
pilgrimage and his gaining an understanding of
the
Post-Trib Resurrection-Rapture.
The Post Tribulation
Resurrection-Rapture
at the Last Day"
'Resurrection', 'rapture' and 'last day'.
Here we have a three piece jigsaw puzzle.
Let's connect these three pieces together
using the relevant scriptural passages.
Behold! What do we find?
Moses's Prophecy
of the Latter Days
3500 years ago Moses in the 'Song of Moses'
brings a word of warning concerning
a
Future Tribulation
and a word of encouragement
to God's covenant people. Would this include
us as Christian believers?
Oh yes!
'Left Behind', or 'Dereliction
of Duty on the High Seas'.
Are we in the western church entertaining notions
of deserting? This sea story from Acts 27
packs a powerful lesson concerning the virtues of
patience and loyalty. It involves
the shipwreck of our Apostle Paul.
The Post-Tribulation Rapture
Pre-trib or post trib? Does it matter?
It certainly does! One view causes us to
prepare our hearts with all diligence and
devotion in blood covenant commitment
towards our Lord Jesus Christ.
..... The other does not.
The Order of Melchizedek
The dual offices of Melchizedek as High Priest and King are in
Christ our coming Messiah. He will unite
the Kingdom, (in the Throne of David in Judah),
with the Priesthood, which is wrapped up in the ministerial Gospel
burden of the Church.
The Kingdom, (in the
returning repenting refined remnant of the Jewish house of
Judah in Israel), will be reunited
with the refined remnant Church. "And so all Israel shall be saved."
This epic and glorious re-uniting of both houses of the former Greater Israel,
will heal the breach of Jeroboam. And the two sticks Ezekiel saw
will become one.
(Ezek. 37:15-28).
Messiah will achieve all this as He refines the gold in
the crucible of the end-time drama.
The Woman and the Dragon
of Revelation Chapter 12
John saw the deliverance of the
end time Elect from the dragon in
the last 3.5 years of this age.
He saw the flight of the woman
to a place of safety
on the wings of a great eagle.
Micah and the constellation of the Little Dipper
or Lesser Sheepfold tell us the rest of
the story.

We trace the Puritans from the English Civil War to their
passage to the New World and onwards to their role in the
emerging
New World Order and the
end-time drama.

The Post Tribulation Rapture
Are We Prepared For Witness?
This is the big question.
Loving God, and the
Discerning of End-Time Truth
Is there romance in the last days?
It seems that John, the writer of the Book of Revelation,
was the apostle of love.
And the love of God's covenant people
for their coming Messiah is the key to understanding end-time truth.
Only in that devotion and in that love-walk of grace and obedience
will they understand
just what is happening
at the climax of this age.
The Coming Millennium
of Messiah or the
Kingdom of God on Earth.
A future thousand years under Messiah is
surely coming. It is
mentioned six times in Rev. 20:1-7. We also see it
in the Old Testament Millennial
prophecies and poetry. This clearly refutes
the Augustinian doctrine of Amillennialism.
The Marriage Supper of the Lamb
Celebration is part of the character of our God.
And He celebrates big. At the Marriage Supper of the Lamb
He gathers with all His covenant people.
All the saints will be there in a joyful
reunion. The glory of this consummation
is beyond our powers to describe.
End Time Bible Prophecy
Is it just a chamber of horrors as
our pre-tribulation rapture friends have
asserted? Or might it possibly be a
threshold into unspeakable glories?
NEW
'Lest We Forget'
We are a forgetful people. Yes, there have been many burdens
and many trials.
Many fine people have made untold sacrifices in war and in peace.
And they should be remembered.
But through it all one basic underlying question remains unanswered.
Why did these things have to happen?
And through all our histories,Who is it that we might have forgotten?
"After Two Days He Will Revive Us".
Hosea Prophesies an Epic Revival - Hos. 6:2
Hosea's prophecy of a revival after "two days"
reached the set time in the fall of 2003.
So have we entered the threshold of the promised
End Time Revival?
The Latter Rain Revival
The name 'latter rain' has been claimed
by a dubious religious movement. It was
declared to be heretical by the Assemblies of God
in the 1950's. The Latter Rain movement,
which is linked to
Dominion Theology, is back.
It is carnal, compromised, and now more powerful
than ever. Nevertheless,
the promise of a true and genuine 'latter rain' or
End Time Revival
is clearly set forth in the Holy Scriptures.
When will this promised great outpouring
of the Holy Spirit occur?
And under what circumstances?

a worthy mission in Africa.
Light Evangelism Ministry (LEM) is a faithful, well run, and very fruitful mission
operating in war ravaged Liberia and Guinea. Brother
Neh-kewon (Mark) Dahn and his wife Eunice, who are from Liberia, were called into ministry in 1989.
After completion of his Biblical studies at Pensacola Christian College
Brother Mark proceeded to establish the Light Evangelism Ministry in 2005.
Here in the USA Brother Mark serves with LEM seeking ministry partners and raising support for the ministry
among the churches.
A network of committed native pastors and evangelists are at work in West Africa.
The past four years have seen over nineteen hundred saved. Many
are being nurtured in the faith and numerous small churches are being established.
Widows and orphans of the civil war are being helped and medicines are being dispensed.
After 15 years of internal conflict there are many amputees.
Inexpensive wheelchairs are about to be sent over in containers with plans for them to be assembled
in Liberia by the vocational arm of Light Evangelism Ministry.
Native evangelists and pastors are using the bicycles and the motor scooter
LEM has provided to speed them on their way.
The pick-up truck we sent in is carrying the evangelistic crew and the equipment
for the "Jesus film" to be shown in villages deep into the back country of Liberia.
Hundreds of lasting commitments are being made to Jesus.
Bibles are being provided and new believers are being nurtured in the faith with follow-up
ministry.
This is a faithful mission work and a very good investment
for us as stewards in the Kingdom of God.
